@ai6yr Manzanar is such a bleak and haunting place where we allowed fear and xenophobia to incarcerate innocent people in a concentration camp. Visiting it should be mandatory
We are walking that path again: Never forget and never allow
I often think of little Midori who spent her only day on this planet in captivity. I am truly sorry
So if you were wondering why Bezos was willing to sink $75 million into the melaina "I am eva braun" movie here is what $75 million get you
It saved Amazon 9 BILLION dollars this year alone
"Republicans’ tax cuts shaved billions off Amazon’s tax bill, new government filings show.
The company says it ran a $1.2 billion tax bill last year, down from $9 billion the previous year, and even as its profits jumped by 45 percent to nearly $90 billion."
Let that sink in: They Paid 1.2 billion ON 90 BILLION in profit THAT IS A TAX RATE of 1.3%
@ai6yr Aviation photography is my passion and I will happily forgo the ability to be close and catch a drop simply to keep these idiots (like the dude with the fake fire truck) or "influencers" who want the wildfire backdrop for some stupid post
New hospital in texas will not have the ability to deliver babies. Compounding this is the flight of OBGYN who do not want to deal with the texas taliban. 60% of rural areas in the state cannot deliver babies. The exodus and lack of care is being felt as maternal deaths spike as well. Also the hospitals that do are inundated as they have to absorb surrounding areas that cannot.
This is assuming rural hospitals even survive the bill that the taliban voted for in regards to health care cuts
People apparently freaked out over a towed radar. Like it has been there for almost 20 years Love the panic without the research. Here is my shots of the Sea-Based X-band radar (SBX-1) from November 2008 using my CoolPix 7900 #MissileDefence#radar#hawaii
@ai6yr I mean back to the cult thing. Look at the state stats for people who need the ACA. While many red states suckle at the federal tax dollar teat they also have the most people that get help from the ACA but go on and on about welfare recipients and yet vote for the very people that take this stuff away. AT this point its not ironic just tragic and sad.
People who did not vote for this are also going to get hurt and badly
So our union has had two strikes in the 26 years I have been in it. 2000 and 2022. They were not one day affairs rather open ended 56 days in 2000 and a week in 2022.
TO send a message 1 day is fine to effect any change may need to be longer than that but 1 day would still be cool to see
As Always "They have the plant but we have the power"
@Godfrey642@futurebird@Dave_Goldsmith@raven667@Npars01 From a nursing standpoint, the rolling stuff does not seem to work. We are an independent union but the dominant large nurses union uses the 1 day strikes a lot.
For hospitals at least most can cancel electives and hold on for a day but open ended is much harder for them
I hear you and we struggle as well but in my direct experience (2 strikes 2000 56 days and 2022 5 days) it works and like you my wife is a nurse at the same facility so we get hit x2
@mcnado I got a really dumb question here and I’m not a lawyer nor do I play one on TV
Can they arbitrarily just hold a minor like that without contacting other family?
are they acting like some kind of Third World Junta and basically holding the four year-old as some kind of bait and how is that not kidnapping?
And is there something within the ADA that prohibits this kind of thing of people with disabilities?
I am a pediatric critical care, Transport nurse, and we have a lot of of our kiddos that we transport have autism and interrupting Their routines is devastating for them and their families. These jackbooted thugs may have set this kid back quite a lot simply with the trauma.
As I have said before, and I’m gonna say it again “I was just following orders “ has not been a thing since the Nuremberg trials
